Business listing and review sites, such as Google My Business, Yelp, TripAdvisor and even YellowPages, dominate the search results for a local busines. As it becomes harder for your website to compete, it becomes critical to be listed on these sites. Business Listing Management is the key to making sure your business shows well in the top sites and, most importantly, in Google My Business.

A Business Profile summarizes the important information about a business. It needs to contain accurate, up-to-date details about the products or services offered by the business as well as address, phone number, and business hours. Our Business Profile Sites are purpose-built to work with your Google My Business listing and comply with Google guidelines and best design practices.

Local Search means the location of a business matters. When someone searches for "pizza" or "electricain" or "coffee shop", Google recognizes "local intent" and shows results from Google My Business listings ahead of website content. In Google Maps searches, everything has "local intent". Local Search Engine Optimization (SEO) is about making sure your business is included in those results.

It takes sophisticated tools and experience working with them to measure the results of Local SEO efforts. We use rank monitoring software, Google Analytics, and Google My Business Insights to know what is working and what needs work in building your online presence.
